Summer Road LLC, a family office beneficial owner of approximately 3% of Ingles Markets Class A common stock, is soliciting votes for its director nominee Rory A. Held at the 2026 annual meeting. Summer Road's campaign focuses on securing independent Class A shareholder representation on the board to address concerns about insufficient transparency, declining growth, stagnant dividends, and poor capital allocation. The filing includes a detailed rebuttal to management's April 8 and April 10 presentations, defending Mr. Held's qualifications and challenging the board's selection process and financial performance claims.
